Throughout her artistic journey, she has had solo and group exhibitions in Iran, Spain, and The United States.
Her artistic trajectory has recently undergone a transformative shift, driven by a profound interest in surrealism and the enigmatic realms of the unconscious. This newfound fascination has led her into a world, the exploration of which has revolutionized Maryam’s earliest collection of works. Primarily oil on canvas, these pieces portray magical and visionary worlds inhabited by otherworldly entities and archetypal symbols. She creates them automatically without any predetermined thought, pattern, or intention.
"I have ventured into places both familiar and strange, where the majestic presence of a higher force enveloped me. Doors opened one by one, and I was guided in love to unveil myself and find the one who resides within me.
Upon returning, my brush revealed to me where I’ve been”.
